Q: Hi 5i,

Pretty sure I know your answer based on past questions, but I have so many questions to use from being a long time satified member.

Would you swap MG for DOO? Please provide some comparison metrics for the next 3 to 5 years to justify switch.

Again, using same question above, compare a BNS to TD switch.

Thanks again for your valuable insights over the past several years!

Q: So, we all make bad buys, some are real big, and we know them in our accounts, so for interest sake, what would you consider to be the 5 worst buys that have been made in the growth portfolio in the last 3 years.
Thanks again

Q: With the recent mini-banking crisis and banks restricting their lending; could this not be seen as a growth opportunity for loan generation for GSY? Even if they can't lend at the same higher rates as before they can still obtain higher loan volume growth - or at least that is my thesis.

Conversely, as consumer spending on discretionary items (eg. furniture, electronics) may be decreasing - could this be a head wind for loans related to their EasyHome segment?

If both of these trends are at play - which do you think will play a larger role on the stock if any? Even with the large drop in the share price, it can't be far off from a PEG close to 1 so it seems attractive as well.

Thanks.

Q: I am thinking of taking a 1.5% position in each of these two stocks. You have mentioned them in the past month as beaten up stocks with a potential for rebound in the next two years.

How riksy are the above the names?
Are they entincing buys at current prices ?

Where would these rank amongst battered SMID cap stocks? I am open to other names,
If you have other suggestions.

Thank you

Q: I'm thinking of taking some positions in base metals companies. I'm especially interested in copper plays as it seems to be needed to support the drive to electrification. Do you think this is and opportune time to initate positions? In any case, I would appreciate it if you would share some of your favorite companies in this sector and it would help if you would present them in order of most upside to least going forward. I'm open to metals. other than copper as well.
